How do you get good at anything? By doing it get your ass in those textbooks and do every single practice problem I went from a fucking loser who could barely pass geometry to acing all my calculus classes because I stopped being a little bitch and started studying.

Also, the calculus is actually extremely easy once you learn it, the problem most students struggle with is algebra, if you're not good at algebra you will suffer in calculus.

I recommend Professor Leonard on youtube as well he helped me when I was stuck.

Practice.
You learn through repetition, space out your practice and try and recall as much as you can without looking for answers.

Khan acadamy is a often recommened site for maths you could start my spending an hour a day on that. (Consistency is key.)
 
Practice plus IQ

just study, really try to understand the concepts and do as many practice problems as you can, until youre certain youve mastered the topic youre on.

really most calculus problems will be easy computational math once youve mastered the topics, unlike more rigorous, conceptual maths like linear algebra, at least in the more beginner calculus courses (highschool and first year uni calculus), so you should eventually get it with enough study. i did, at least, i went from being average at math to being top of my highschool for calculus just from studying a lil. also after doing so much calculus I just started to immediately understand all concepts taught to me in the more advanced calculus classes (multivariable calculus, complex analysis, differential equations). so studying calculus for long enough can improve your learning speed.

but i dunno, my IQ was tested to be quite high so maybe calculus might be a little harder for you even if you put in the same effort as me.

My IQ has been tested at 117 so idk

Mine was tested to be in the low 130s. So theres a bit of a difference, however youre still in the 90th percentile or so for IQ scores, so you should definitely be fine with the less-advanced calculus classes that I assume youre doing, as long as you study a bit. Higher level calculus and maths in general might be a bit of a struggle for you, I recon youd need an IQ of at least 125 to not have a miserable time in those classes due to their abstract nature. so maybe dont pursue a degree in mathematics in college lol.

Except I need to succeed in engineering school. I will brute Force my way into being good at calculus.
 
Crazy to ask this question on an incel forum
 
Watch professor leonard dude is math chad.
 
If under 105 IQ give up

If 105-125 IQ. Just study for many hours a week

If 125+ IQ Math will be pretty easy
